FDK is dead after last nerfs

FDK is dead after last nerfs. Yeah. That is all.
I tried to do DMG on cleave dummies in new capital city but my DPS was around the same as my alt Fury Warrior and even sometimes lesser. The diffrence between my characters ilvl is: Frost DK 584, and my Fury Warrior 558. Rotation of these specs is very simple so there is no way someone will mess it up.
Thank you. Another expansion where Frost DK is dead spec.

How did you play him, two handed or two one hander?
Bliz is currently pushing the two one hander build damage wise, and as far as i know it is one of the stronger melee specs right now.

Naturally i’m playing 2x 1h axe. FDK talents forcing you to play 2x 1h weapons.

What I mean about this, Frost DK was a beast on the beginning of expansion. A monster. It was obvious they will get nerfed. But after packs of nerfs again and again it became nothing. Sometimes even people with 20-30ivl lesser are doing better than FDK. This is what I am speaking about.

Nothing surprising here,called it out on the first nerfs fdk received.
It was strong sure, but was not top.
Blizzard decided to nerf it and leave the specs that were on top of it untouched.
Garbage tuning priorities if you ask me.

a tale as old as time now.

Now most of you know that I’m one of the first to the party when it comes to complaining about DK issues on this forum, but I did some hc dungs this week with the guild and I was way ahead on the overall than everyone else.

Mind you I don’t think this is a relevant sample to conclude “tuning good yes/no” and I’m curious to see what the general performance of frost deathbringer is going to be in M+ and raids. Upcoming changes with 11.0.5 seem mixed, some are nerfs but some are straight up buffs plus that soulreaper interaction seems very interesting on paper at least.

nope we r fine. Please dont touch us…

Just lol hahahaha

so it wasnt just me? i did some mythic and i was way behind retri pala and warriors. Is it me not pressing very hard the buttons or should i just leave the dk as tank and use the pala as dps? ( i have both ofc).

The real pain just to add some salt to the wound on topp of it all is the fact there is no point in bringing DK’s to raid as we don’t provide a raid buff.

I made a post before about this issue once we get kicked out of S-A tier down to B-C tier, then there is no point at all bringing DK’s to raids.

Don’t forget those 2 fights that need grip, our amazing unique utility that everyone loves us for… :poop: :clown_face:
